In reality never use r.in.tiff so that isn't like function, but if r.in.gif
is probable that isn't compile, so that must addd the path where is in
the file src/CMD/lists/GRASS and compile...

you can find the comand r.in.gif in ..etc/bin/contrib/cmd/r.in.gif

good Luck!

AH! ... and excuse my english, is'n t very good
